Playing with Dishes and Mud Pie



I love playing with dishes!  My mom loves beautiful dishes too so maybe I came by it honestly.  Christmas brings out the child in us all and while shopping in Cinnamon and Bears I found the cutest Mud Pie Christmas ornaments.   I thought they would be perfect on my Christmas tree and so pretty on a holiday table!
The Santa ornament is adorable!


I layered my fun little ornaments on some of my favorite dishes and put them in my three-tiered server to use as decorations in my dining room.  


Mud Pie makes some of the cutest baby clothes I ever seen and they also make these beautiful and colorful ornaments!  


The Rudolph sits atop a layer of dishes I've collected over the years.


The candy cane luncheon plates were gifts and I love their
pretty borders.


When I collect plates I look for pretty borders..or an interesting pattern.  I love how the borders look layered together and the Snowman is the finishing touch.




I had fun playing with dishes and Mud Pie..hope you are enjoying the 
Holiday Season!!

 Merry Christmas!

  2. These are adorable, and it looks so fun how you have layered them so well. I recently found some fun Christmas dessert plates, and can't wait to pull them out for gingerbread.
